Although a lot more commercialised compared to few years ago, it is nonetheless one of the best beach to relax and party.

Let's put it this way: White beach on boracay can be heaven and hell at the same time. If you want the secluded paradise beach experience you came to Boracay for, go to the Northern or very Southern part of the beach (both directions about 15 minutes if you walk from Station 2). There you will find nothing but the... More

The best time to get out to the beach is early in the morning, before the crowds begin to arrive. During my stay, I would hit the beach at 6 am and go for a quiet walk from one end to the other. Even at this time though, you still have people pestering you go island hoping, diving, and whatever,... More

Postcard-perfect photos everytime, as long as the sun is out. It gets crowded, however, especially along Station 2. To get a quiet spot, head towards the end of Station 3, after the boats. There are some rock formations there too that make it more picturesque, plus fish just slightly offshore for snorkelling enthusiasts.

We flew into Kalibo then rode a bus through the Aklan province and took a boat to Borocay. I thought I was escaping civilization and entering a paradise of peace and serenity while falling asleep to the sounds of the sea. I was wrong. Our hotel was at station 2. Directly across there was a live band blasting till midnight.... More

Stations 1 and 2 are noisy and crowded. One sees young people drinking whiskey from morning to night; the noise of thump thump loud music is hard to escape. The water is clear and the beach is decent, but the noise of spring break types interferes with the natural beauty of the beach and background mountains. Diniwald further up the... More

beautiful beach with powder white sand , marred by green algae in the water at station 2 when i was there. if you walked out about 25 metre the water was crystal clear and it was real heaven.

Although the nature is so good, managements of almost all the facilities is quite bad; you definitely would prefer to stay at a nice facility near the beach to enjoy the beach. And if you are not 18 and wanna have party at 140 db , you better go off season
